Conceptualizing the social best practices at the international and European level

Abstract

The development of Best Practices is not an isolated set of policies/ entity that can be just copied and then reproduced. Researchers have argued that there are different levels of good practice. Creating or finding good practice is about plotting, mapping and reflecting on who were the key players, the structures and the situation that made practice work. There is, however, no practice that is best for everyone or in every situation, and no Best Practice remains best for very long as people keep on finding better ways of doing things. Article provides an analytical overview of the identification of good practice in general and particularly in the field of Social Economy.
